Thomas Harlan
1984 - Allemagne/France - Couleur - 102'
An old man is kidnapped. His interrogation uncovers the biography of a mass muderer: the eighty-year-old man was a SS leader and responsible for the killing of thousands of people in Russia. He also "invented" an evil technique of eliminating political prisoners: the "manipulated suicide". Thomas Harlan reconstructs the history of a burocratic muderer, he also develops a direct connection between the National-Socialism and the treatment of prisoners of the RAF terrorists in the Stuttgart isolation prison. The reality seems to be stronger than the fiction in Thomas Harlan's film.
